    Just how necessary are tones really?

    As the title says, just now necessary is tone ID on the Tesoro. I was sad to see that the Outlaw did not inherit tone ID from the golden umax but that's ok I guess. I never spent enough time using my silver umax or compadre to learn what the tones were telling me; it all seemed beep and dig. You...

    Golden umax comparisons please

    I've always danced around the idea of trying out a golden before but instead I tried other brands and put the golden tryout on the back burner. I'm considering it again among a couple of other units and thought I would get some opinions. Golden users, can anyone who has used the golden umax give...

    Which coil size for the Tiger Shark and why?

    Hoping to get a tiger soon, just trying to sell an AT first for funds. Which size coil is best in y'alls opinion and why? Larger coil covers more ground and supposedly goes deeper but I've heard harder to swing and gb under water. Smaller coil less depth but more sensitive but do I really want...

    Tesoro Pricing?

    I'm interested in eventually purchasing a Tiger Shark and was wondering about Tesoro and dealer pricing. I don't want anyone to post here a price they paid or what I can get one for on the public forum. The question is, do you have to pay the "list price" that you see everywhere or can dealers...

    Sovereign GT as a coin shooter in trashy parks

    How does the Sovereign do as a coin shooter in trashy parks? I saw it has a notch feature but is it the type of notch that will take out certain things and leave the rest or will it notch everything at one setting and everything below it? Will I find myself wanting the optional meter to help id...

    A good price for Omega?

    I just found the Omega for sale for $449 here locally, is that a great deal or what? I may have to go pick one up if I find the bones laying around for it.

    5x8 or sniper coil?

    Which one would be better for heavy trash areas from those who have tried them? Is the sniper coil a dd or concentric coil? How do the 5x8 and sniper do on bottle caps? Just trying to get an idea if I decide to invest in a small coil later for heavy trash and I would want one that will keep the...

    Whites M6 does not like Pro Pointer. Help!

    I finally got out for about 45 mins today near a home site with the M6 to use it for the first time. I didn't find anything but a couple pieces of trash but did not know what to expect at the area I was in but was really hoping to find at least a coin or two. :confused: I have a problem though...

    New G2 User here, some observations

    I had purchased a G2 from Bart at Big Boys and also now have an M6 coming as well; based on some reputable advice I decided to try these two out. I have gone on a couple of short hunts with the G2 so I don't have much feedback on it yet; I'm on the fence still before I decide to love it or hate...

    G2 ID'ing iron incorrectly? Myth? Omega better choice?

    I'm thinking about getting either a G2 or an Omega and hear a lot of good about both, but just the other day I talked to a dealer who carried Teknetics who told me the G2 constantly id's iron in the 80's/coin range. Is there any truth to that or maybe he just got a bad machine? I'm a...

    :thumbup:Whites DFX for Sale or Trade:usaflag:

    I have a Whites Spectrum E-series detector in excellent condition that I am looking to sell or trade. The detector will come with the AA battery pack holder, the 10"x12" DD SEF Butterfly coil and a 5" Detech DD Excelerator coil. This detector works better than my ability and I am only selling it...

    Notching w/G2 and gold bug pro

    Just found out no notching available for these models. Do they constantly make noise in trash? Any coinshooters have a problem with no notching in trashy parks? Thanks!

    XP Deus or should I say XP Gold??

    I only say XP gold because I just happened to start looking into this detector and when I saw the price tag I about fell out of my chair! I don't mean to mislead with my post title or sound cheap, but jiminy cricket, that's a huge investment in just a detector. Without getting into comparisons...

    Update on DFX, but second thoughts...

    I had posted here some time ago about a great deal that I had gotten on a nice used dfx. I have gotten it back with new parts from Whites and it is in excellent shape and works great, except it's a bit complicated to use. I have tried the preloaded programs on it as well as Larry's program and...

    Opinions on which Whites and is this a good price??

    In case you've seen this, I also posted this in another forum I use. I've been looking out for a good deal on a used whites dfx, xlt or mxt pro for coin shooting, relic hunting and occaisional beach hunting. I have a compadre but find I dig a lot of trash with it, more than I want to, so I...

    Omega or G2 help me choose

    I'm new here as a poster but I've been reading for quite awhile now. I am entering the market for a new detector and have the field narrowed down to a G2 or an Omega. I live in central Texas and am really just a beginner detectorist with a couple of months experience. I currently own a tesoro...
